Hello, I have a 99 Hyundai Accent with around 155K miles on it. I just had a new transmission put it changed the spark plugs and spark plug wires. When the engine is cold as i drive away and come to a stop sign and stop the engine will hesitate and sometimes shut off. what could be the cause of this?
